Structured register of government actions in the geoeconomic space — export controls, tariffs, sanctions, FDI screening, subsidies, industrial-policy laws — cross-referenced into the country, minerals, and ETF surface. Charter: docs/IPTM_CHARTER.md.
Severity 1-5 is the qualitative impact rating (1=minor, 5=structural). The bilateral-trade-grounded quant scorer is the next IPTM milestone. RBI (Register Breadth Index) is a complementary structural-breadth indicator from scripts/py/iptm/breadth.py; divergence between RBI and severity is itself informative (high-sev / low-RBI = strategic chokepoint; low-sev / high-RBI = broad but shallow). Every action has at least one primary source URL. Verify-or-don't-file. See also themes, timeline, graph, sankey, map, country exposure, sector exposure, material exposure (+ graph), weekly briefs, portfolio scan, escalation monitor, trans-shipment hubs. Internal triage tools (RSS-poller candidate feed, source-feed health) live under /admin/candidates + /admin/sources. Subscribe via Atom feed (accepts ?country=CN, ?material=lithium, ?issuer=BIS, ?type=export_control, ?etf=SOXX, ?company=NVDA, ?minSeverity=4, ?year=2026, ?q=…) or pull /api/iptm/actions.
On 1 September 2026 the European Commission approved a EUR 30 million Portuguese State aid scheme, under the Middle East Crisis Temporary State Aid Framework (METSAF, adopted 29 April 2026), compensating agricultural, fishery and aquaculture businesses for increased fuel and fertiliser costs. Fishing and aquaculture operators receive direct grants of EUR 0.10 per litre of marine diesel consumed between 1 April and 30 June 2026; agricultural beneficiaries receive payments scaled to farm size and livestock numbers to offset higher fertiliser costs. Individual beneficiaries are capped at EUR 50,000 and the scheme runs until 31 December 2026.
China's Ministry of Finance, NDRC, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, People's Bank of China and National Financial Regulatory Administration jointly issued Cai Jin [2026] No. 4 on 2026-01-19, establishing a central-fiscal loan interest-subsidy scheme for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) operating in 14 designated industrial-chain and emerging-industry sectors. Eligible loans originated from 2026-01-01 receive a 1.5-percentage-point annual interest subsidy for up to two years, capped at RMB 50 million in principal per enterprise (maximum subsidy RMB 1.5 million per enterprise). The policy is tentatively set to run one year with a possible extension.
On 23 December 2025 the Government of the Russian Federation, via Order No. 3959-r signed by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, allocated more than RUB 1.3 billion (approx. USD 17 million) from the government's reserve fund to co-finance completion of four crab-catching vessels under construction at shipyards in the Far Eastern Federal District. The subsidy is split into four equal tranches of RUB 340 million to fishing companies (including LLC "TRK", LLC "Voskhod", LLC "Antey Sever" and LLC "Sever") holding investment-quota allocations for crab fishing, under a programme that ties quota rights to a domestic shipbuilding commitment. The order is part of a broader 2024-2026 investment-quota vessel programme covering 13 crab-catching vessels and roughly RUB 6.4 billion in cumulative state support.
On 29 August 2025 the Australian Government announced an additional AUD 1 billion in loan funding for the Regional Investment Corporation (RIC), taking cumulative RIC loan support for the agriculture sector to over AUD 5 billion. The package creates a new Drought Hardship Loan for farmers affected by drought for at least 24 months (borrowing up to AUD 250,000 over a five-year term, interest accruing but repayments fully deferred for the first two years), and broadens RIC's mandate to also support climate resilience, sector productivity, and agriculture's transition toward net zero. The measure is a concessional state-loan facility, not a border instrument, and does not target any specific foreign country.
On 22 August 2025, Brazil's Ministry of Agrarian Development and Family Farming (MDA) and Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock (MAPA) issued joint Portaria Interministerial MDA/MAPA nº 12/2025, part of the "Plano Brasil Soberano" response to the US 40% IEEPA tariff on Brazilian goods (Executive Order 14323). The ordinance creates an exceptional, emergency-character public-procurement channel under Law nº 14.133/2021 and Medida Provisória nº 1.309/2025, allowing federal, state and municipal public administration to buy açaí, coconut water, cashew nuts, Brazil nuts, mangoes, honey, fresh grapes and select fish (corvina, snapper, tilapia and other fresh/frozen fish) directly from producers and exporters who can document lost US sales since January 2023. Beef and coffee are explicitly excluded from the eligible-product list.
The European Commission approved a Czech national framework state aid scheme, worth an estimated €279.1 million, on 24 June 2025. The scheme is structured as an ex-ante contingent programme: it pre-authorises Czechia to compensate companies of all sizes active in the fishery and aquaculture sector for lost income and damages once a natural disaster or adverse climatic event affecting the sector is officially recognised. The scheme runs through 31 December 2031. Global Trade Alert logged the measure as a financial-grant intervention.
